Boating With Babes

Talk about "child-proofing" a house! Here we are making the boat a safe place for a two year old. With four pairs of eyes on him at all times (not counting Nelson's, who is watching for WAY different reasons) the kiddo isn't in much danger of anything short of being spoiled-to-death. The kiddo is a happy child with winning ways. He has wormed his way into our hearts BIG TIME.

Being at the beach means playing ball with Nelson. There is no getting away from it. We have been trained.

After the beach, it's bath time on the back deck.

The five gallon "lookie bucket" is just the right size for our little visitor. He has dubbed "bucket bath" his favourite part of his whole adventure.

Papa Buz got inventive before the little one arrived. Look at this booster chair he made out of a plastic bucket. (Buckets seem to be coming in handy this trip.)

Steadfast can now boast a third state room. Papa Buz removed the forward shower door and built a bed for the Little One. He has his own room! Next year, when New Baby will be with us, Papa Buz has plans to put in a higher bunk that will be even longer (over the shower cupboard space) so two kiddos can share the space. I wonder what Sabre Yachts would think of this new design????

Three more days to go before the Little One takes his parents home. There will undoubtedly be more pictures to take and memories to store up. What wonderful times it is when families can be together, growing in love and respect.
